Professional mold testing for your next home

Mold often goes undetected during a standard inspection. A professional test tells you if mold is present before you move in.

defects before move-in Colorado Springs

A new home doesn’t mean defect-free

Frequently Asked Questions

A new construction inspection is an independent, third-party evaluation of a new home. It’s performed before your final walkthrough. Top Choice inspectors check the foundation, roof, plumbing, electrical, HVAC, and interior for issues that the builder’s team might have missed.

No. The final walkthrough is conducted by the same team that built your home, not an independent inspector. It’s designed to confirm that the home matches your selections. A new construction inspection is a separate, unbiased evaluation performed on your behalf.

Schedule your new construction inspection before your final walkthrough. This is when your builder is still responsible for completing repairs and before you sign off on the home.

Your Top Choice inspector documents every finding in your report, so you can request repairs from the builder before closing.

Colorado Springs is seeing major new construction growth in communities like Wolf Ranch, Cordera, Banning Lewis Ranch, Meridian Ranch, Flying Horse, and Jackson Creek. Top Choice inspects new construction homes across all of these communities and the surrounding area.
